Table 1.

20 % and 50 % lethal concentration (LC20 and LC50 with 95 % upper and lower confidence limits) of H. discus hannai Ino in different NiCl2 concentrations at 22 and 26 °C for 96 h calculated by probit analysis

Water temperatures (°C) Probit analysis Estimated values (mg/L) 95 % confidence limit
Upper limit Lower limit
22 LC20 9.929 −21.196 22.637
LC50 28.591 14.747 49.526
26 LC20 4.116 −5.428 8.169
LC50 11.761 7.588 16.764

Control and NiCl2 concentration lower than 5 mg/L did not have any mortality until the end of the exposure periods
